Clearly we are a bit biased, but there are many many reasons to buy local. Here are a few of our favourites:
- You keep money in the local economy and create local jobs.
- You don’t just support our makers, but they spend locally too helping to keep others in employment
- You nurture community
- Our makers are very active in their local communities, with stalls at local fairs and farmers markets
- You help the environment
- No shipping long distances. Think of it as “goods miles”!
- You invest in entrepreneurship
- We have been amazed at the “get up and go” of our makers and by the way they have inspired others to follow in their footsteps
- You get the best customer service!
- We like to think so!!
